About 5:45 P. M. to-day a freight train
from the west uncoupled upon the hill
west of here to run down and take water.
While the engine was at. the tank, and
the first portion of the train stood In
front of the depo, the rear cars got under
way, and increasing their velocity as they
went, crashed into the standing train
with such force as to throw one car into
the west end of the park, breaking trees
and fence, and upsetting about three
others, besides damaging all the rear cars
to some extent. About three cars are
lying across the tracks, one completely
on its side. No one was hurt, though
fears were entertained for time of the
conductors safety.

Clouds shielded the sun for a while
Thursday morning, and gave the early
goers an opportunity to reach the Saline
and the picnic grounds In something of a
solid condition. The beauty of last
years procession was lost this time by a
gO-as-you-please plan, and no idea could
thus be obtained of the number of
persons who accepted the Sunday schools
invitation to join them in their annual
picnic. Owing to the late arrival of one
OF the principal singers, the program was
not given until after dinner, and then
! consisted in congregational singing, a
sshort, but very entertaining address by
FRev. j. @. "A. Weller, the recitation of
Whistling in Heaven by Miss Knight,
nicely given, and games which were par
dcipated in without regard to race, sex,
Tor previous condition OF WEAKNESS. Mr..
Mcmillan, the present owner OF the
grove, was in attendance, and entered
heartily into the sports, enjoying the
pleasures sufficiently. it is hoped, to re-
pay him somewhat for his kindness in
permitting the school and its friends to
gather in the GOODNESS of his shady grove.
